Cardiff Animal Hospital & Wellness Center

This is the best veterinarian we have ever been to across 3 states. My precious service dog, with the working breed drive to chase the ball , was given a play break, tore her ACL tendons & now requires TPLO surgery. We researched the procedure, the places within 3 counties that do the surgery, the expense involved, consulted with 3 different hospitals & clinics & are now scheduled for surgery this week at CAH. The drive to get my dog to CAH is a little over 2 hours & 60+ miles one way in traffic, but we know we have made the right choice! The "flat fee," the specially trained assistants, the experienced doctors, the office professionalism & the way my dog reacted to the staff made the choice easy to make. Comparative reviews and the comments from the customers waiting for their pets in the waiting area confirmed our understanding of this hospital. When I took a sneak peek around the corner to see how my dog was doing in the exam room, I saw her snuggled up to one of the doctors' assistants on the floor!!! Amazing! She hates going to the veterinarian! We are not looking forward to the surgery, but we are confident the outcome will be fine. So far, this is a 6-star review!!!!

We’ve been bringing our lovely Loosey here for about a year now and couldn’t be happier with the care she receives. Loosey is a bit fragile—she had an infection when she was young that left her with a funny walk. Every vet we saw before had no clear answers about why she wobbled, so we never thought too much of it. Recently, though, she’s been in a lot of pain. Dr. Wood not only helped us understand what might be causing it but also provided clear next steps and referred us to specialists. The journey isn’t over for Loosey, but thanks to Dr. Wood and Hannah’s kindness and professionalism, we feel much more supported. I can’t recommend them highly enough!

Cardiff Animal Hospital is all-around a fantastic animal hospital. My Standard Poodle was able to be seen on short notice for a foxtail removal. Dr. Ingram did such a wonderful good and I appreciate the staff for always being so professional and kind. They even followed up with me to ensure he was healing properly. Although, this hospital is not the closest to me, I'll continue to drive the distance because their quality of care and attention is worth it!

If I could more stars, they have already earned them. Best vet I have been to period. We have seen a few around the county as the years went by. Out of a handful of vets this vet beats them all hands down. My animals are happier here. You will be too

Thank you for fixing my dog! She had CCL surgery (performed by Dr. Woods), nails removed, and a number of ear infections. Dr. Woods and staff (shout-out to Madison) have easily been the best health providers in north county. People at the park who have known me since i got my dog at 3 weeks old remark on how active and happy my dog is after switching to this vet. I have been to countless vets in north San Diego and they easily provide the best price to quality service you can find. If you love your animal as do I, you will not be displeased.
